I though I read somewhere that you couldn't convert a full float to a 6 lug, I think the hubs are too big.
I guess that's what I needed to know, thanks.
It's all a lot simpler if I get the GMC's original 12 Bolt w/Eaton Posi rebuilt, and put it back on the Jimmy. Then the Sub get's it's own rearend back.
